Cakefool posted:Even a 20" half full of water would weigh like 18 tonnes? you'd need a pretty big boat to contemplate it, unless you just wanted to tow it back to port & borrow a crane there. Then you open it & find 25 Chinese bodies, not the 1908 Jag you were hoping for. Tow it to shallow water, or tidal sandbar perhaps. Might get lucky and have a container full of something packed in that loving clamshell plastic for example, scubalooting!

wesleywillis posted:I wonder some times, how much crazy assed poo poo was not recorded/photographed in the days before everyone having a camera on everything. The camera thing extends to a lot of life. For example, I'd never consider doing half the stupid/illegal stuff my mates and I would do anymore. Yeah in a way that can be good, but it takes away lots of freedom and adventure.

BloodBag posted:Is this a reference to the miniseries The Stand? I thought nobody but me watched that fine piece of cinema. Its also a book. Books burn up nice like old lady semples pension check. Trash.

CarForumPoster posted:I like the complete lack of fasteners on the bumper and hatch and complete lack of welding on a total rear subframe and suspension replacement. Amazing. I dunno if its normal or not but the front jackstands, with two feet not three, gave me the fear tingle when they were under. hrrrrghh.

Safety Dance posted:They're pin stands -- they slot into horizontal holes in the side of the car's frame. It would take some doing to make them fall. Thank you. Hadn't seen that before. Off looking into it now.
